74ls04 datasheet

The 74LS04 is a popular and widely used hex inverter IC (Integrated Circuit) that is commonly used in digital logic applications. It is designed to accept six independent logic inputs and provide six complementary logic outputs. This IC is a member of the 74 series of digital logic integrated circuits and is built using TTL (Transistor-Transistor Logic) technology. It operates over a wide range of power supply voltages, typically between 4.75V to 5.25V, making it compatible with most digital systems. The 74LS04 is equipped with six independent inverters, each capable of converting a logic input signal to its complementary output. It has a high noise immunity, allowing it to operate reliably in noisy environments. The output current of each inverter is set to approximately 8 milliamperes. This versatile IC can be used in a variety of applications such as in digital computers, calculators, data systems, and other digital logic circuits. The 74LS04 is a cost-effective solution for those looking to perform logic inversion functions with ease and reliability.
